'There is Nothing in Islam that Justifies this Truly Dreadful Act...'

Daniel Greenfield writes on British Prime Minister David Cameron, "PM Cameron: 'There is Nothing in Islam that Justifies this Truly Dreadful Act'."

Usually, after a horrible crime, it’s the lawyer for the killer who steps forward to assure the public and potential jurors that his client had nothing whatsoever to do with the act.

But when it comes to Muslim terror, that is now the role of political leaders.

“This was not just an attack on Britain – and on our British way of life. It was also a betrayal of Islam and of the Muslim communities who give so much to our country,” British Prime Minister David Cameron said. “There is nothing in Islam that justifies this truly dreadful act. We will defeat violent extremism by standing together by backing our police and security services and above all by challenging the poisonous narrative of extremism on which this violence feeds.”

Muslim communities do indeed give so much to the UK, aside from the occasional bombing and beheading, there are the sex grooming gangs, the social welfare fraud and the drug dealing.

It’s astounding really. They give so much and get so little in return. Just free homes and jail sentences.

But while I would hesitate to disagree with a scholar of Islam like Cameron, perhaps we should turn to a more expert source.

Sura (chapter) 47 contains the ayah (verse):

“When you encounter the unbelievers on the battlefield, strike off their heads until you have crushed them completely; then bind the prisoners tightly.”
